How should you deal with students who have outbursts in the classroom and are distracting other students? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Allowing these students a "chill out" is a good way for them to be responsible and manage their emotions and behaviors. They can do this by removing themself from the class group and into a chill out corner. This would be a corner further away from the group that would have a bean bag and rug space and some books to let the student relax for a brief few minutes. When they feel they can come back and act properly then they do. If they are there more than 10 minutes the teachers needs to talk with them and see what else is going on.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: Giving a student with ADHD a chill-out time is good in theory, however in some cases these students are looking to have permission to not complete a task because they are bored or don't want to do it. Having a chill-out time with a continuation of the assignment may be a more constructive use of their time away from the group.
